Unbelievably happy with these plants!! You Can get 10% off your order at Grow Tropicals when you use my code: JUNGLEHAVEN10 at the checkout 💚 growtropicals.com Also make sure to stay tuned over the next few days to see me and Sarah @ThePlantRescuer unbox the rescue box I got from them!
I didn’t notice you had ordered and so for anyone considering ordering, this has been delivered as any other order would be - no special treatment, no preferential selection of plants, no extra packing etc. In our experience ‘this way up’ arrows or any other variation make no difference. We watch DPD put these on the van every day and I’ve been in the depot more times than I want to think about. Stuff goes every which way up no matter what you do and so packing as we do is basically the only way to avoid damage. Glad everything arrived in the condition it left us! Always nice to see happy customers 😊
I would name the McDowell “Granny” and sit up all night long talking to her!!! God I miss my Grams! They are all in heaven, but this gives me an idea to name some of my favorites after them!
Omg i want a geogenanthus ciliatus. I can’t wait to see how your poeppigii turns out. I’ve made a boundary for myself that I order plants once a season (can buy more if I go to a store). I just received some plants for my winter splurge-and I’m setting up two philodendron “kingdoms.” I have the white kingdom with philo white Princess, white knight, and white wizard. The other kingdom has my philo pink Princess and eventually prince of orange and imperial red. I also got an alocasia azlanii and pink dragon, since my pink dragon form doesn’t seem to be growing. And I caved and got the philodendron brandtianum That piper is definitely on my wishlist. That looks a like a beautiful and well-developed specimen.
When a nurseryman wants to propagate, I tend to use pumice or a mix of perlite and vermiculite. Do it under a dome. Use a good rooting hormone. I use Woods, but that's a commercial product. Any one of them beats none of them. Best of luck! Keep humidity super high and bottom warmth for a complete boost to the process.
Claire this was a spectacular plant reveal. Your grandmother is just as excited for you as you are❤. Cant wait to see how you shower them with love and they grow showing their appreciation.
I use grow tropical a lot…they are really fantastic! Ha…I’m glad there is another person out there that looks at her plant order every day until it arrives 😁😁😁
Loved this plant haul! Such beautiful plants! How wonderful that you Grandmother left you instructions to spend her gift on something you love. Such a smart lady! Plus it shows how important you were to her and how she loved you enough to give you her wise advice. Many thanks for a truly lovely video. Take care! 👌🪴🥰
I would try pinning the piper roots into small pots of compost the same way I would pin strawberry runners into small pots to create new plants. So wait until the roots take before snipping from the plant.
I love the reasoning. 'I had cuttings but did not gave it my all, so i got a whole plant instead' :D using this on my man next time i need a plant hehe
Burle Marx fantasy is a very easy to take care of indoor plant. Mine has mature and it’s so beautiful. The leafs are huge and each leaf pattern is amazing .. it loves moss pole and love to climb
Omg grow tropicals have a heckin’ sale on! Just bought a huge monstera standleyana variegata for £10.99! Been wanting one for ages! My wet stick is struggling and keeps dying back so I’ve bitten the bullet and bought a large plant. So excited!
I always love watching plant unboxings! It's so exciting! I love your new aglonema. I love them too - I have several. I have a "juliette" which is very similar to the "cutlass" and it has just grown like crazy. I want to get a silver bay also. Love all your videos. Keep on with them please!
Hey Claire, You are like a child with a new box of Lego, wonderful to watch your new arrivals. My favourites of your haul are: 1st philodendron fantasy for its diminutiveness , 2nd the piper, 3rd the Geogenanthus, 4th the anthurium pendens only because of the strap like foliage... I instantly had to google geogenanthus because it looked to me like of the tradescantia family.... and in case you didn't already research, this is what I found of Wikipedia (I quote): "Geogenanthus poeppiggi belongs to the genus Geogenanthus of the flowering plant family Commelinaceae. Commelinaceae is a well defined family of 41 genera and about 650 species.[1] G. poeppiggi is placed under the subtribe Dichorisandrinae, within the tribe Tradescantieae." in this case you are better off letting it trail or place him in a trogh where it can ramble and root as it travels along. I'm so jealous right now, I'm going to have to purchase one as well, him and the "Philodendron Mr Tiny" - you see, I already named mine lol Thanks for sharing
That cutlass is gorgeous. Just a heads up… the geogenanthus is very dramatic. It will get very droopy when it needs water. It likes to stay moist and doesn’t require a lot of light. If you let it dry out too much the leaves crisp up.
Omg… I’m going to have to blame you now hun, I’ve just gone and bought myself the philodendron McDowell from grow tropical 😅.. blimey very dangerous watching you nowadays 😂😂.. I can’t wait now.. Awhh keep up the good work… even though you are “dangerous “😮. P.s. shit I was so excited I totally forgot about the 10% off lol, that will learn me!
Just beautiful. Today is all about you, for me 😊. I’m watching your video of your bedroom tour. Did you ever find out about the noise coming out of the snake plant leaf? Was it stress? My first thought was that we are hearing the water being sucked up. Or she’s trying to drink but can’t because there’s to much algae making the water thick.
I had a Geogenanthus poeppigii cutting, it looked and lived a lovely life in water. Once I planted, it didn't last long. Not sure what I did! Also called a searsucker plant, I think (type of fabric) It is a very beautiful plant. Good luck with it.
I have Geogenanthus peoppigii that has grown really big and bushy.. it’s quite easy to take care of.. make sure keep the soil moist and he loves humidity.. I love the ripple on the leaf and the red back on the leaf as well.. when they get bushy it looks amazing
I bought a geogenanthus ciliatus in September. It has been a problem child since I got it. The leaves turn crispy and drop. I hope yours does better. Great video, as always:)
I got one too, and it did the same, until I moved it to low light (a few feet away from a northern window), and now it thrives. I think geogenanthus need to be in pretty low light. It's the only way I got mine to stop crisping.
Hi claire and yoli! Such beautiful picks....I as well like a mixture of big and small plants....oooo that McDowell 😍😍 can't wait for the rehab unboxing....have an amazing week💚💚💚
You are absolutely right about that you have to treat yourself as a present for holidays you definitely owned to make yourself happy. Plus at the new place you need to have a new plans Plants are definitely incredible and gorgeous good luck with them stay happy be healthy peace .
McDowell is super chill to grow... I have mine in no drainage in a samla box growing in charcoal and orchid bark 😂😂 I really need to give it sth less chonky but it honestly doesn't care and it's leaves are larger than my torso 😂😂
I have a small piper Sylvaticum. They push out leaves all the time! They sun stress to pink in the summer. One of my favourites. In my experience, they rot out quickly with too much humidity and mine seems to thrive on wilful neglect! Just don’t let it get really cold.
Amazing I want a philodendron McDowell so bad also they are crawler plants so you might want to buy a long pot you should try Leca for this one it will grow better and less chances of root
So it was you that bought the last Aglaonema Cutlass, it just went out of stock as I was about to add it to my basket. What are the chances of that? I just lost mine to root rot as I went a bit overboard with the pest spray , lol. What a nice haul you've got, that McDowell looks gorgeous and the Piper Sylvaticum is a nice size. I wish you the best of luck with them and can't wait for the updates and the rescue box video.
Hi Claire, I have the Geogenanthus poeppigii you just bought - it's an easy plant. Keep it moist. Mine is in lower light, like you would put a fern in, but I'm sure medium light would be better.
My favourite method of propagation is in perlite) I tend to overwatering my plants and perlite is the only thing which allows me to do everything right. It holds the extent of water and in case I miss with watering too much, I always can use paper towels to dry it
Such an exciting haul!! All the plants look so healthy and beautiful, you definitely picked some good ones!! Very excited for the rescue unboxing to come :)
Such a great unboxing I love your picks! I ordered from Grow Tropicals before and the plants came in a perfect condition. I'm basically looking at their website every few days, wanting all the plants 😆 I'm curious to see where are you placing them, I live in a two bedroom in London and trying to figure out where I'm gonna put more plants (I don't even have that many) also I don't know why but my boyfriend wants some free space ro walk and sit without plants 🤪

Looks like a tiny dancer plant !!😊
That McDoweell is 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Wow the McDowell is gorgeous
Oh my gosh yay that Philodendron McDowell is GORGEOUS
Beautiful plants.
I would recommend propagating with perlite! I’ve always had success with this media for props 🤗
I would name the McDowell “Granny” and sit up all night long talking to her!!! God I miss my Grams! They are all in heaven, but this gives me an idea to name some of my favorites after them!
Hi Claire! Welcome to the Philodendron Dean Mcdowell world. It will be amazing and grow beautifully :) very happy for you
The P McDowell is Awesome!!
Great selection!
Omg i want a geogenanthus ciliatus. I can’t wait to see how your poeppigii turns out.

The story about your granny was simply lovely!

Thank you granny 😢 made me tear up ❤ sending you so much love 💗
Claire this was a spectacular plant reveal. Your grandmother is just as excited for you as you are❤. Cant wait to see how you shower them with love and they grow showing their appreciation.
Thanks!
I think velveyness should be an official Jungle Haven adopted word 😍
So satisfying, makes me so happy to watch your happiness
I use grow tropical a lot…they are really fantastic! Ha…I’m glad there is another person out there that looks at her plant order every day until it arrives 😁😁😁
Just used your code towards a wishlist plant of my own wooo so 😁
I ordered the same from them those Pipers!
Good information video 📹
So happy that you could obtain your ultimate wish list plants. The joy in your face was priceless. ❤

I would try pinning the piper roots into small pots of compost the same way I would pin strawberry runners into small pots to create new plants. So wait until the roots take before snipping from the plant.
That feeling happened when I got my Joepii & it still hasn’t stopped for my Spiritus Sancti that I got last month.
I love the reasoning. 'I had cuttings but did not gave it my all, so i got a whole plant instead' :D using this on my man next time i need a plant hehe
Those plants are so green and healthy they look artificial! Beautiful!
Stunning plants especially the McDowell
Wow, what an absolutely stunning collection. I'll bet your grandmother is smiling wherever she is. Thank you for sharing. A lovely unboxing !
That Piper sylvaticum looks really gorgeous and amazing 😊😍🥰
Luck you, gorgeous plants, congratulations! ❄️💚🙃
Eeeeeeee so happy for you. Fabulous Sweety 🌼
Burle Marx fantasy is a very easy to take care of indoor plant. Mine has mature and it’s so beautiful. The leafs are huge and each leaf pattern is amazing .. it loves moss pole and love to climb
Nice haul. Enjoy! Thanks for sharing.
I totally agree about the McDowell. I have wanted for years! I hope I can buy it one day
Perlite would prop your plant💚

I agree with you
The variety of colours on leaves is one thing, but I'm amazed at all of the different leaf textures. Thanks for the show and tell.

I bought a geogenanthus ciliatus in September. It has been a problem child since I got it. The leaves turn crispy and drop. I hope yours does better. Great video, as always:)
I got mine around that time too… she is no longer with us 😬 I don’t think I’ll try again
I got one too, and it did the same, until I moved it to low light (a few feet away from a northern window), and now it thrives. I think geogenanthus need to be in pretty low light. It's the only way I got mine to stop crisping.

Beautiful plants! Do you repot them straightaway? And how do you clean the big leaves? Under shower or with a wipe or something?
Can you do a video on piper care? That’s one genus i struggle with.
beautiful plants where do you order have been writng the names down thank you
I have no trouble propagating Piper crocatum and Piper methysticum in water. Keep trying!
Those pipers are hard to prop from cuttings. I've had no luck with the piper crocatum.😢
Unlike the velvety leaf of the palli, the pendens is very leathery as well! Mine just gave me a 1m3 leaf and I’m just 🥵🥵🥵
Mantap
Are personal cars not a thing in the UK ?
Your videos are amazing!!
Word of caution, the BMF needs as high humidity as you can possibly give it! Even in high humidity I couldn't get it to size up at all 😔
The burle marx fantasy? Huh, guess I'm crossing it off my wishlist for the time being
Grow tropicals have sold out of rescue boxes… 😢
first!
Thank you, Gran! 😚🥹🥰 All the feels!
